No. It's PCM controlled. It's possible that yer IAC is in need of replacement ( cleaning them seldom works for long for whatever reason). Mind you this is from what I see on a V8 of that vintage - may want to wait until a 4.2 guru cimes in - it may be different. Good luck.

EDIT - not much, but I did find this: https://www.f150online.com/forums/v6...3-f-150-a.html

Have you checked for vacuum leaks?
